Hi.
I built the kernel from https://github.com/Freescale/linux-mainline patches-3.12. First a couple of questions about building:
1. Which _defconfig shall I use (as basis) for a i.MX6 quad board (it is actually Boundary Devices nitrogen, but we are developing our own card using i.MX 6 SOlo so I need to start "from scratch") I tried imx_v6_v7 which compiles, but ...
2. Why does 'make uImage' complain abount LOADADDR. It is easy to fix, but why shouldn't a published _defconfig actually compile to something that works?
3. Also which _defconfig for a i.MX6 Solo?
When booting the kernel I get unaligned access immediately. That is; some information about the kernel is shown by uboot, but the kernel does not start. I get a message to read the arm-unaligned-access.txt file. Again. Why doesn't a _defconfig for imx-something work.
Could someone point me to some answers here?

1. You should use 'make imx_v6_v7_defconfig' for all mx6
2. You need to use make uImage LOADADDR=0x10008000 for mx6q
3. imx_v6_v7_defconfig
4. Make sure you also provide the dtb file when booting a 3.12 kernel.

Hi Fabio.
Thanks. Fast answer :-)
I boot from MMC, but I'm not sure the dtb file are on it. I'll experiment some more.
